Check out every Voucher Card in Balatro with this complete list of cards and how to unlock them. Voucher Cards have a hidden upgrade — turning the initial 16 Vouchers into 32 if you know how to unlock them all. Below, we’ll list all the standard cards, the upgraded versions and how to unlock the upgraded card.

Here’s how Vouchers work: Voucher Cards are upgrades that permanently effect your current run — they have effects like +1 Hand Size or +1 Discard and the effect remains until you exit your current run. By completing an achievement, it’s possible to get an upgraded Voucher that enhances the effects of your Voucher further. You’ll need to buy the Standard Voucher before the Upgraded Voucher is available later. It’s a complicated system, but one you’ll want to learn if you want to truly master Balatro and take advantage of every possibility.
